Are you tired of the same ‘ole, same ‘ole routine every day? You wake up early, grab a cup of java and settle in for some personal internet time. Those of you who work part-time or not at all face the same challenge every day. What are you going to do with the rest of your day?
On one hand, you feel like you deserve the right to do nothing. On the other hand, your are bored beyond belief and can’t imagine what could possibly change the future to make it more interesting. You keep waiting for something to change, but even when it looks like a possibility, it just doesn’t happen indegenerique.be.
It’s a common Boomer sitch. The truth is nothing is going to change unless you actively do something different. Right?
Like Albert Einstein once said, “Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”
Just sayin… If you want to enjoy life every day rather than what you’re doing now, get up and get moving. Here are 10 great ideas to get you started!
LOW-LEVEL ACTIVITY IDEAS – You’re already doing this!
- Sleeping, watching television, playing on your phone, tablet or computer… You’re already doing these, right?? LOL
MEDIUM-LEVEL ACTIVITY IDEAS – Ease into it!
- Join or start a book club, craft club, cooking club, or neighborhood walking club. Get creative and use your interests to find other like minded people!
- Find a couple of groups to join on Meetup.com. It won’t obligate you to join in each time, but you will have new options!
- Learn a new language in a small class – look at CraigsList, Facebook, Meetup.com or check out the extended studies at a local college.
- Take any kind of non-private dance class! Meet new people!
- Volunteer your time in an organization you care about!
HIGH-LEVEL ACTIVITY IDEAS – Live Bold!
- Get a dog and join in at the local dog park!
- Host a local singles or cultural event in conjunction with a local restaurant or convenient facility.
- Meet up with Facebook friends you have never met in person for a local Happy Hour and/or live music.
- Get involved with your local government to be an advocate for those who have no voice!
- Go back to school and get a degree/masters/Phd or Vocational Certification
The list is actually endless – only limited by your imagination! For now, let these idea starters sink in and see what resonates with you. Pick something you can sustain over a longer period of time until you’re feeling bored again!
The point of power is NOW – not tomorrow. Only you can change your life! Start by telling yourself a new story about yourself and your life… how would you like it to look? What would make you happy? If you could do anything in the world RIGHT NOW, what would it be?
